Title:
  Graphical splash blocks boot-up in artful setup on virt-manager/qemu-
  kvm

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Setup a VM in virt-manager/qemu-kvm
  2. Boot from a daily artful image
  3. Select install artful or a live session
  4. Boot-up hangs at the graphical splash (Ubuntu logo and dots)
